Estates & Trusts

When individuals make the decision to liquidate or downsize their assets, it can be a difficult and emotional process. They may be dealing with a home sale, family inheritance or lifestyle change.

Professional fiduciaries and advisors may lack experience dealing with collectibles, jewelry, antiques, fine art, furnishings and other personal belongings. Abell’s specialists handle every detail of the estate auction process to protect each client’s best interests.

A well-advertised estate auction with Abell is the easiest and most profitable way to find a place for the contents of an estate. By selling at auction, rather than hosting a house sale, items are exposed to a larger and more informed audience, which leads to higher prices from competitive bidding.

Estate auction transactions are open and transparent, with accredited appraisals and a detailed accounting accepted by all courts and the IRS. Built on 100 years of trust and experience, Abell is the auctioneer of choice for executors, trustees, attorneys and family fiduciaries.
